Winner of Thursday night's T.T. held under near perfect conditions, was Schwalbe's Don Gillmore who just failed to get under 21 minutes Many of you will remember Don as a sprinter on the national track team in the late1980's. Seems he's still a force to be reckoned with!

Everyone beat their previous best times on the course, even Menno Jonsma, who arrived fashionably late, had no warm-up and overshot the turn.Next event will be on Thursday, 6th. September. 6pm start time.

Team Coastal Cycling would like to invite all cyclists from all disciplines of all ages to our 3rd annual hosting of Cyclo-Cross in the North Delta Watershed Park on Saturday, September 15th, 2007. We are excited to use the same course as last year with some modifications based on feedback from last year's event. Also this year in an effort to introduce future bike racers to the sport we are adding free kid's races. We'll be using a modified, shortened, and flat version of the full course for the young racers.

Racers are allowed to use mountain bikes in all categories except for the A group. For kids they can use whatever they have and for the 10 & under group they can have training wheels if necessary.
